After a flying start, Nach Baliye 8's ratings crash; and we are not surprised

The ratings of dance reality show Nach Baliye have nosedived, barely a week after its premiere.

Nach Baliye started off with a promise of a lot of entertainment and Nach. It also had all our favourite TV jodis--Divyanka-Vivek, Dipika-Shoaib, Bharti-Haarsh, Aashka-Brent et al. The opening TRP of the show was 4.8 million impressions and in its first week, the show bagged the spot of No. 1 reality show. But the second-week report of the show is miserable, to say the least.

According to the latest data released by BARC India, the show has garnered 3.8 million impressions, and is at 18th position. We won't be surprised if the show vanishes from the ratings chart soon, and we have a reason to believe that.

The crash in the ratings can be attributed to the fact that the show did not live up to its expectations. The performances are not as exciting as the viewers want them to be. Besides, Upasana Singh and Karan Tacker--maa-beta act is a drab affair. Yes, there is a load of drama and tear-jerking moments, but it all looks very forced.
